We’re continuing to enhance the flexibility of our Shop Editor. As the next step in this journey, we’re introducing multi-column layouts, giving merchants more control over how content is structured and displayed.
Here's what we'll work on
Up until now, block templates (sections) could only be placed across the full width of the content area. With the upcoming update, merchants will be able to define container elements with 2 to 5 columns – and insert block templates within each column, side by side.
This significantly expands layout possibilities for homepages, landing pages, and other content-driven areas.
Why this matters
More layout flexibility without custom development
Better organization of content for storytelling and conversion
A key milestone toward a more modular and powerful Editor experience
When the Editor was first released, the focus was on delivering a stable and functional core. With that foundation now in place, we’re rolling out the next layer of flexibility – based on merchant feedback and real-world needs.
Further improvements are already planned for later this year as we continue to evolve the Editor.
